Binge drinking encouraged to beat recession

Gordon Brown has called for pubs and clubs to stay open 24/7 to help the UK spend its way out of recession.

Speaking at the Mop and Bucket pub in Wimslow Cheshire he said "People drinking more alcohol will have a knock on effect in lots of ways, more money will be spent at the bar,which will lead to more jobs for council workers who will have to clean up vomit and urine from the streets, also hospitals will employ more staff in A&E. The motor industry will also benifit as more drunks will crash their cars leading to an increase in new car sales."
